Robert Sean Leonard

Highest Rated: 90% Much Ado About Nothing (1993)

Lowest Rated: 14% Driven (2001)

Birthday: Feb 28, 1969

Birthplace: Westwood, New Jersey, USA

A Tony Award-winning stage and film actor with a boyish charm, Robert Sean Leonard first caught the attention of Hollywood with his touching portrayal of a prep school student with theatrical aspirations in Peter Weir's modern film classic, "Dead Poet's Society" (1989). A stage-trained actor from the age of 12, Leonard became known for his earnest and touching dramatic performances throughout his career. Dividing his time equally between stage and screen, Leonard managed to maintain success in both mediums, starring opposite some of the business' most acclaimed actors, including Paul Newman, Glenn Close and Kenneth Branagh. Making the shift to series television in 2004, Leonard joined the cast of the hit medical drama, "House" (Fox, 2004-12), and as Dr. James Wilson, enjoyed the most high profile success in his career to date.
